Bug#600425: cdebconf: text frontend for selection isn't documented enough

[Samuel Thibault <sthibault@debian.org>]

Package: cdebconf
Version: 0.150
Severity: normal

Hello,

is really clear: what is displayed is

Choose software to install: 
 1. Graphical desktop environment 5. File server 9. Laptop  
 2. Web server 6. Mail server 10. Standard system utilities [*]
 3. Print server 7. SQL database  
 4. DNS server 8. SSH server  
Prompt: '?' for help, default 10  

'?' gives

KEYSTROKES: 
 ? Display this help message 
 ! Select an empty entry 

This doesn't explain how to select several items at a time.
